Tennis is easy though because you are just looking at the ball relative to the court lines and there’s little in the way of judgement calls. I personally think the NHL is the worst (not the most incompetent as CFL officials own that one) because they actively feel their duty is to manage the game rather than call it by the rule book.

NBA is by far the worst. Every single possession there is a travel or foul. It all depends if they want to call it or not.

I consider the NBA more WWE than other professional sports.

It's a wait and see game to see if Bo will play against the Als, but with the bye week coming up following Saturday's game, why rush him back? Arbuckle took the majority of first team reps at yesterday's practice with Bo experiencing some pain after Tuesday's practice session.

So, the Stamps offense will just run the wildcat all game long?!? It still might be good enough to beat the Als lol

I’m beginning to wonder if season ending surgery is on the horizon for Bo. Couldn’t even handle a day of light reps.

Browning seemed like he had a shot at the NFL (Vikings) at one time. Might work out in the CFL.

Amazing what a turnover can do, Bombers looked like they were going to make it 17-0, instead it's now 10-6
